IV42150: ALLOW GRACE PERIOD FOR OFFLINE EVENTS WHEN RTEMS GOES OFFLINE

IBM Tivoli Monitoring 6.2.3 Fix Pack 5 (6.2.3-TIV-ITM-FP0005)

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

Local fix

Problem summary

• When a remote monitoring server goes offline, all connected
  agents are marked offline causing a large number of offline
  events to occur. This may cause problems due to the action taken
   by MS_Offline situations when hundreds or even thousands of
  events occur.
  

Problem conclusion

• The code has been changed to delay the notification of offline
  events by twelve minutes. This will give agents connected to the
   remote monitoring server time to switch to another monitoring
  server thereby reducing the number of actual offline events.
